1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

A 59-year-old man presented with a 5-year history of progressive dysphagia. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) revealed an esophageal stricture with adherent whitish exudates, and biopsy specimens demonstrated fungal elements. Subsequent EGD showed longitudinal furrows, concentric rings, and white exudates, mimicking eosinophilic esophagitis. Biopsy specimens revealed marked intraepithelial lymphocytic infiltration without eosinophils. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated a predominance of CD3-positive T cells, leading to a diagnosis of lymphocytic esophagitis. Despite treatment with proton pump inhibitors, H2-receptor antagonists, antifungal agents, and inhaled fluticasone, his symptoms persisted without sustained improvement.
